The Downsizing Roadmap Podcast

42. Should You Downsize Before Retirement? What to Know While You're Still Working


Listen Later

Do you really have to wait until retirement to make your move? Not necessarily. In this episode, we bust the myth that downsizing is a post-retirement project — and show you why moving while you’re still working might be the smarter, smoother path.

We’ll cover why your income gives you more financial flexibility, how to plan a move without disrupting your job, and what to consider if you’re still commuting, working remotely, or balancing your move around PTO. Plus, we’ll share how to make sure your next home works for your now lifestyle and your future retirement.

If you're in your 50s or 60s and wondering whether it’s time to make a change, this episode is your timing guide.

🎯 Topics Covered:

  • Why waiting until retirement might limit your options
  • Smart ways to use income to your advantage
  • Budgeting tips for dual-phase lifestyles
  • How to prep for a move without burning out
  • What your “next chapter” home really needs to include
